Contribution Rules📚:

  • You are allowed to make pull requests that break the rules. We just merge it ;)
  • Do NOT add any build steps, e.g., npm install (we want to keep this a simple static site)
  • Do NOT remove other content.
  • Styling/code can be pretty, ugly, or stupid, big or small, as long as it works
  • Try to keep pull requests small to minimize merge conflicts

  • Fork the repo (button on top)
  • Star the repo ✨
  • Clone it on your local machine
git clone https://github.com/Evgenii-Bazhaov/Hacktoberfest2024.git

git push origin my-new-branch

Avoid Conflicts {Syncing your fork}

An easy way to avoid conflicts is to add an 'upstream' for your git repo, as other PRs may be merged while you're working on your branch/fork.

git remote add upstream https://github.com/Evgenii-Bazhaov/Hacktoberfest2024

You can verify that the new remote has been added by typing:

git remote -v

To pull any new changes from your parent repo, simply run:

git merge upstream/master

This will give you any eventual conflicts and allow you to easily solve them in your repo. It's a good idea to use it frequently in between your own commits to make sure that your repo is up to date with its parent.

For more information on syncing forks, read this article from GitHub.
